not hitting the #1 alliance at any point is retarded, but so is listening to the arguments from the members (ellonweb, lokken, yourself) of a rival alliance (ascendancy: one which is well known for its great military ability and use of politics) who are attempting to browbeat you into following a certain action. (in this instance hitting apprime - (with a block from the looks of it))

im not trying to say ascendancy are the bigger threat, but to write ascendancy off (as it seems the asc posters are trying to do) is silly. apprime have 6k more roids and 15 more players at tick 210. even if asc dont have players out of tag, theyre capable of getting more members with late signups as they often do. 15 late signups mining 500 roids each is 7500 roids ascendancy could pull out of thin air in under 5 days.

as stated im not trying to use such speculation to support an argument of 'ascendancy is the strongest ally and most likely to win', merely point out that the downplaying of ascendancys chances are boring and means very little to the people who have been paying attention these past few rounds.
